Chapter 34, mutual performance
The Tianshan Mountains in December are covered with silver and white everywhere.
Tianchi Peak.
Li Wuya stood at the foot of the mountain, looking at the rows of spruces 40 to 50 meters away with a serious expression. She turned her wrist, and several stones flew out of her hands, all heading towards a spruce tree. shoot.
"嗖嗖嗖~"
The sound of stones breaking through the air resounded.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud 'crash', and a spruce tree as thick as a bucket broke from its roots and hit the snow heavily, startling countless birds.
Zhan Peng, who was teaching Li Qilang to practice martial arts not far away, heard the movement, turned his head and looked over, and saw the fallen Yunshan, his face was surprised, and then, with a flash of figure, he came to the fallen Yunshan.
Looking at the fracture at the root of the spruce, which was as smooth as a knife cut, Zhan Peng’s eyes widened, and he looked at Li Wuya in disbelief: “Little Junior Sister, did you break it?”
Li Wuya smiled reservedly: "Yes."
At this time, Li Qilang also ran over.
"Sister, how did you break the spruce?"
Li Wuya didn't speak, picked up a few stones, and shot them out again.
A moment later, a spruce more than forty meters away hit the ground.
When Zhan Peng and Li Qilang met, one opened his mouth slightly and the other was dumbfounded.
Knocking down a spruce dozens of meters away with a few stones, this internal force is too strong.
Li Qilang swallowed his saliva: "Sister, why is your internal strength so strong?"
Li Wuya smiled: "Of course it's because I practiced hard day and night."
She was able to shoot the spruce more than 40 meters away. In addition to mobilizing internal power, she also used spiritual power.
Now, her mental power can detect everything within a radius of 50 meters.
With the enhancement of mental power, in addition to detection, it is now possible to control objects through the air and attach objects with mental power.
Of course, only small objects can be controlled and attached.
For example, stones.
With the stones attached with spiritual power, within 50 meters, she can hit wherever she wants, with no deviation in accuracy.
Li Qilang looked a little depressed. He obviously started practicing martial arts together, but now Fifth Sister is much better than him.
Li Wuya noticed his younger brother's depressed mood, and patted his shoulder to comfort him: "Qilang, don't think too highly of my sister, my sister's martial arts is just so-so now, if she is really good, I don't need stones."
Li Qilang wondered: "Then what do you use?"
Li Wuya said with a smile: "Use leaves, petals! If I really use a few leaves or petals to knock down a tree, that would be really powerful."
Li Qilang was a little numb, he was not comforted at all.
There is a twin sister who is too talented. It is really difficult for him to be a younger brother.
"Little Junior Sister, let's fight?"
Zhan Peng looked at Li Wuya eagerly.
Junior Junior Sister has strong internal strength, so fighting with her is not considered bullying a child.
"Okay!" Li Wuya readily agreed, only practicing without actual combat, it is almost like talking on paper, she has long wanted to find someone to discuss.
As soon as the voice fell, Zhan Peng launched an attack.
Li Wuya didn't accept the move, turned around and ran, "swish, swish, swish" a few jumps, and climbed to the top of the tree, then stepped on the crown of the tree, and flew a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye.
"Little Junior Sister, why are you running? I'm not trying to compete with you, I'm going to fight you, please stop!"
"Second senior brother, if you catch up with me, I will fight you!"
Li Wuya didn't want to fight Zhan Peng. She just wanted to see how her lightness kung fu was doing, where her limit was, and if she met a master similar to Zhan Peng, would she be able to escape.
Seeing Li Wuya flying farther and farther, Zhan Peng was so anxious that he chased after him with all his strength.
Just like that, within a few breaths, the two disappeared from Li Qilang's sight.
Li Qilang looked at the sky blankly, Fifth Sister didn't play with him anymore, how annoying!
Hmph, what's the big deal, he went home to play with his second sister!
After a full hour, Li Wuya and Zhan Peng returned to Tianchi Peak.
Li Wuya looked happy, but Zhan Peng had a long face.
He didn't catch up with Junior Sister, so Junior Sister stopped fighting with him, and ran around for nothing, so annoying!
Li Qilang saw that Li Wuya was so unreliable to others, he felt much better, and took Zhan Peng to continue teaching him to practice martial arts.
Running around, Li Wuya wanted to go to the hot spring to soak in hot springs, but just as she was getting dressed and ready to go, she was stopped by the old man from Tianchi.
"Girl, come here."
Li Wuya was a little surprised. As a master, she would take the initiative to find her when she asked for a mask, but it was very difficult to see people at other times.
The old man Tianchi looked at Li Wuya with a smile: "Your elder brother has sent a letter."
Li Wuya is even more strange. The elder brother often sends letters, and she usually hears second news from Zhan Peng. Why did the old naughty boy tell her this time?
"Brother mentioned me?"
The old man Tianchi didn't answer, but said instead: "You are still too young, and you don't know how to be someone's master at all. The old man asked you, have you ever taken the initiative to care about your apprentice?"
Li Wuya was stunned for a moment, then remembered that she seemed to have a cheap apprentice.
When she mentions cheap apprentices, she gets angry.
Half a year ago, she was quite happy to learn that the elder brother had accepted this apprentice on her behalf.
Even though she knew that he was going to die, and thought that he was a prince, didn't she fulfill her duty as a master by sending him an opening letter and a meeting gift?
But that guy didn’t even reply to a letter!
Fortunately, he is still a prince, so he doesn't even know how to reciprocate.
She gave a meeting gift, shouldn't he send some teacher apprentice gifts?
But she waited and waited until she didn't see a single piece of paper, so she couldn't be a human anymore.
The cheap apprentice made it clear that he didn't take her as a master seriously.
Hmph, she also has a temper!
Since the apprentice is not happy to have a master like her, she will naturally not put her hot face on someone's cold ass, and simply pretend that the apprentice has been confiscated.
Anyway, she didn't pay anything, except for the qi and blood pills and medicinal bath prescriptions she made, but she could afford the loss, and then put it behind her.
If the old naughty boy didn't mention this matter, she almost forgot about the cheap apprentice.
Li Wuya thought of the illness of the cheap apprentice, her eyes suddenly widened a bit, and she looked at the old man Tianchi in surprise: "My apprentice died?!"
Hearing this, the old man Tianchi's mouth twitched, and he squinted at Li Wuya: "I said, that's your apprentice, can't you look forward to him?"
Hearing what he said, Li Wuya breathed a sigh of relief, and patted his chest: "I'm not dead, I was shocked." Then, he looked at the old man Tianchi, "If you didn't mention him suddenly and abruptly, I would Do you think so?"
The old man Tianchi snorted: "Is it the old man's fault?"
Li Wuya didn't answer, and skipped the question directly: "Master, okay, why did you mention my apprentice? Did the elder brother say something?"
The old man Tianchi looked at the young apprentice who deliberately changed the subject, feeling a little depressed.
He found that the young apprentice was even more difficult to deal with than the senior apprentice. Before the senior apprentice had mastered his medical skills, he could still survive, but this young apprentice
It’s been almost two years since I’ve been a teacher. He’s left her alone, and she’s left him too. He doesn’t take the initiative, and she doesn’t take the initiative, as if it’s the same with or without him as a master.
Thinking that the pharmacopoeia in the library has almost been read by the young apprentice, and the new medicine she occasionally concocts, Elder Tianchi's mood is very complicated.
Obviously, the young apprentice is really talented in studying medicine.
However, irritating people is also really irritating people, not 10% as sensible and obedient as the second apprentice.
The old man Tianchi snorted, and threw a letter to Li Wuya: "Didn't you write a letter to your apprentice before, this is the reply!"
Li Wuya raised her eyebrows: "It took him a long time to reply this letter."
The golden eagle is extremely fast, and it takes a few days to go back and forth between the capital and the border. It took half a year for the cheap apprentice to remember to reply.
After a while, Li Wuya read the letter at a glance, and then there was something strange on her face.
The letter was well-written, with gorgeous words throughout. Fortunately, she has a high literary quality, so she still understood what the cheap apprentice wanted to express.
The cheap apprentice mainly expressed three contents in the letter.
The first content is that he is lucky in three lives to be able to worship her as a teacher.
Hmm. She doesn't believe this at all.
If you really want to take her as a master seriously, can you reply her letter in half a year? Only ghosts believe it.
The second content is that he said that his health has improved a lot, and this is all because of taking the Qixue pill and soaking in the medicated bath she sent, and he is very grateful in his heart.
Li Wuya believed in this point.
However, she couldn't figure it out, since Qixue pills and medicinal baths are effective for cheap apprentices, why did he write to her now?
Actually, when preparing Qixue pills, she played a trick.
There is no way, the cheap apprentice was recruited by the senior brother for her, and there is no relationship between them. In addition, she is at the border, and the cheap apprentice is in the capital. They are thousands of miles apart, and there is no chance to communicate with each other. By increasing the number of communications, I have a sense of presence.
So, she specially prepared only three bottles of Qixue Pills, exactly one month's supply. As long as the medicine has an effect, the cheap apprentice has to write to her every month.
This coming and going, isn't there a master-student relationship?
However, she waited for half a year before receiving the first reply. Why did he go there a few months ago?
"Could it be that the cheap apprentice just recently discovered the efficacy of Qixue pills and medicinal baths?"
Thinking of this, Li Wuya deeply felt that the cheap apprentice was not very smart, he was either headstrong or suspicious, which caused him to ignore the good medicine for half a year.
The third content expressed by the cheap apprentice is that he is plagued by illness, lives in seclusion, has no one to accompany him, and feels lonely. He hopes to communicate more with her master in the future.
Li Wuya clicked his tongue twice, he was indeed the emperor's son, and he was so tactful when he asked for medicine.
Isn't he afraid that she won't understand what he said?
The old man Tianchi watched Li Wuya put away the letter slowly, without saying anything, and then looked at him, as if he had something else to do, and she was about to leave if nothing happened.
"You don't reply?"
Li Wuya snorted and said, "It took half a year for me to reply to my master's letter as an apprentice. If I want to reply to him right away, I, as a master, don't want to lose face?"
The old man Tianchi sneered: "You are so thick-skinned, I thought you were shameless."
Li Wuya said with a wooden face: "Master, be clear, I am your apprentice, don't pull your arms out."
The old man Tianchi refuted back: "Why did you go out, isn't your disciple the old man's disciple?"
Well.
Li Wuya stopped talking.
The old man Tianchi snorted, and pushed a wooden box more than one meter long that was placed on his feet to Li Wuya.
Li Wuya opened her eyes wide: "What is this?"
Tianchi old man: "A gift from your apprentice."
Hearing this, Li Wuya was overjoyed, and immediately stepped forward to open the wooden box, and then a guqin appeared in sight.
"Qin?"
The smile on Li Wuya's face was cracked.
The old man Tianchi had good eyesight, took a look, and said with a smile: "This piano is not bad, both the body and the strings are made of high-quality materials, it looks like it has been around for a long time, as expected, it is a good thing in the hands of the royal family. That's a lot."
Li Wuya was not very happy: "No matter how good the piano is, I can't play it."
At this moment, Li Wuya once again felt that the cheap apprentice was not very smart, and he couldn't even give gifts.
Even if he doesn't know what he likes, can't he send some practical things, such as gold, silver and jewelry.
The old man Tianchi said quietly: "If you don't like it, you can sell it. Royal things should be able to sell for a lot of money."
Li Wuya thought about it too, so she felt happier.
Looking at the guqin, Li Wuya wanted to hang the cheap apprentice, but the apprentice was so sensible and sent a gift in return, so she wanted to hold it again, which was a bit hypocritical.
"Master, I thought about it for a while. I am a master, so I can't have the same knowledge as an apprentice. I'd better go and write back to him."
The old man Tianchi knew this would happen, and said with disgust: "Shameless?"
Li Wuya acted as if she didn't understand: "Master, I'm going to see what the second senior brother is doing, so I won't bother you." After finishing speaking, she ran away with her guqin in hand.
The old man Tianchi looked at Li Wuya's back, and shook his head.
"It's unfortunate for Shimen!"
The big apprentice is greedy for the prosperity of the world, but now looking at the appearance of the young apprentice, it seems that he has surpassed it!
They are Tianchi Peak here, which is a fairy gate in the eyes of outsiders.
Immortals should be extraordinary and free from vulgarity, not like them, greedy for worldly fame and fortune!
Vulgar, simply unbearably vulgar!
The capital.
The Great Prince's Mansion.
The First Prince, who has taken medicinal baths and qi and blood pills, can now walk out of the room and play around in the yard for a while.
For the first prince who could only hang himself in bed before, this was a dream come true.
In the courtyard, the eldest prince would look in the direction of the gate from time to time.
Gao Changshou went to Zhanfu again today, I wonder if he can get a reply from his master this time?
Xin is second, mainly Qixue Pills.
When he thought of Qixue Wan being ignored by him for several months, the First Prince regretted it so much.
If he had discovered that the Qixue Pill was so beneficial to his body earlier and had taken it earlier, would he be able to go out of the house now?
Thinking that after his father ascended the throne, he hadn't even entered the palace yet, the eldest prince felt very blocked.
Mother is the first wife of the father. He is the eldest son of the original spouse. The other sons of the father all have residences in the palace. Only he was left in the former Prince Rui's mansion, like an abandoned son.
The First Prince was very depressed, and at this moment, Gao Changshou came back.
Seeing Gao Changshou, the eldest prince immediately asked eagerly: "How is it? What did Miracle Doctor Zhan say? Has there been a letter from the border?"
Gao Changshou smiled and nodded, but saw that there were too many people in the yard, so he didn't say anything.
The eldest prince was overjoyed.
There are only a few Qixue pills left, and he is worried that he will not take them in the future. Recently, he will only take one unless his body can't take it anymore.
The first prince knew that there were many people in the mansion who were eyeliners, so he suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Gao Changshou to help him back to his room.
After returning to the room, Gao Changshou took out three bottles of Qi and blood pills and a letter from his arms after everyone had been dismissed.
The eldest prince couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.
It is still the taste of the first letter, the vernacular throughout, and the direct expression.
"Your Highness, what did the letter say?"
The eldest prince didn't answer, but took the medicine bottle first, poured out a Qi and blood pill, smelled it, and made sure it was the same as the one he took before, before taking it with his head raised.
"Master, the old man said that she likes the Guqin I gave her very much."
Gao Changshou heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That guqin is the number one piano in the previous dynasty. Anyone who loves rhythm will long to have it."
The eldest prince nodded, and said again: "I remember when the queen mother was here, someone sent an emperor's green jade flute with a clear body, you go and find it."
Gao Changshou: "His Royal Highness wants to play the flute?"
The eldest prince shook his head, and ordered the three bottles of Qixue Pills on the table: "Qixue Pills are only enough for one month, I want to continue to communicate with Master, so I can't do it empty-handed."
Gao Changshou nodded: "Your Highness, you gave the Guqin, or should we give something else?"
The First Prince shook his head and denied it: "Since Miracle Doctor Zhan said that Master loves temperament, only sending things in this area will not make mistakes."
Gao Changshou hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Your Highness, the border is remote and bitterly cold. I think the living conditions are not very good. Maybe it would be better to send something else."
The eldest prince sneered: "Do you really think I have a master at the border?"
Gao Changshou was stunned: "Your Highness means"
Yes, the eldest prince still doesn't believe that Zhan Fei really has a junior sister, and thinks that the person who communicated with him was someone pretended by Zhan Fei.
The eldest prince said in a deep voice: "I have a special status, the eldest son of the Empress Yuan, if my illness is cured, how many people will have restless sleep at night?"
"There are many factions in the court, and none of my younger brothers is easy to get along with. Doctor Zhan doesn't want to get involved in this troubled water, I understand."
"But he is unwilling to be restrained by others. In addition, my disease is really difficult to cure. He was happy to see Lie Xin. After weighing it, he invented a little junior sister to cure my disease."
Gao Changshou was silent, a little confused: "There is no need to be so troublesome, isn't Zhanshen's treatment the same as his junior sister's treatment?"
The eldest prince laughed: "If Miracle Doctor Zhan lives in the capital, he will inevitably have to deal with other people. He has superb medical skills, but he has offended many people, and even thinking about it will give him a headache."
"But his little junior sister is different. She is far away at the border. Even if others are dissatisfied, is it possible to chase him to the border?"
Gao Changshou nodded suddenly.
The First Prince narrowed his eyes: "Since Miracle Doctor Zhan wants to play, His Highness will play with him."
As long as he can be cured, he is willing to cooperate.
Soon, Li Wuya received a letter from the eldest prince and a jade flute.
Although the gifts given by the eldest prince were not very satisfactory, Li Wuya was willing to send him a letter every month if he had gained something.
In this way, the master and apprentice began to communicate frequently.
In the letter, Li Wuya deliberately made herself an amiable and good master.
Every communication, in addition to the routine care and relief of the cheap apprentices, they will also focus on the hardships of the border. The implication is to hope that the apprentices will show more filial piety.
As for the eldest prince, he also made himself into a poor little person who had tasted the warmth and coldness of the world and was abandoned by his relatives.
Every time in the letter, he would mention that he experienced the long-lost warmth from Master, which made him believe once again that there is true love in the world.
He also revealed that he wanted to come to the border to see the master, and the implication was obvious, that is, to let the so-called master cure his illness quickly.
Both master and apprentice are immersed in their own roles, and they understand the roles they play thoroughly.
A few months passed, Li Wuya watched more and more gifts, and the eldest prince felt his body getting better and better. Both of them were very satisfied with each other, and felt that this master (apprentice) could continue to be with each other forever.
